Chapter 32: Dragon, Horse and Phoenix
Zuixiao Tower!
The atmosphere on the second floor was solemn, and all eyes were gathered on Dou Changsheng.
Dou Fangli had worries in his eyes, and this third question was difficult to answer.
You should know that one question is difficult and one question is difficult. At the beginning, the first question is just a matter of making up the numbers. The main banquet was the local gentry and celebrities at Takizawa.
Song Yu must first give Takizawa a brief explanation, so the second question is the real test question, and the third question is even more difficult.
Dou Fangli never considered answering the third question from beginning to end, and was able to answer two questions in front of him, so he walked to Song Yu with his agility. Dou Fangli was surprised, but now the third question was released, leaving deep worries.
If you can't answer this question, all efforts will be turned into flowing water. As for the words of rejection, it is simply impossible.
He looked at Dou Changsheng with concern, but looking at Zhou Zhiqing and Wang Zhiqiang with only suppressed anger.
Even if it doesn’t work, it must be done!
How can a man say no?
Dou Changsheng made a promise calmly, nodded slowly with a solemn expression, and answered Song Yu's words.
He looked at everyone and stopped at Wang Zhiqiang and Zhou Zhiqing because the official qi Dou family and Zhou Zhiqing had a conflict. Now, for the sake of the county magistrate, he also began to have disputes with the Wang family.
Recently, Dou Fangde has frequently gone to the county town. If Song Yu hadn't arrived this time, he wouldn't have returned to Takizawa. The conflicts would have accumulated long ago, and now it is completely because of the inspiration in front of him.
"The Four Books have been tested, so let's recite the Five Classics. Choose two of the five chapters of "The Book of Songs", "The Book of Songs", "The Book of Rites", "The Book of Rites", "The Book of Changes", and "The Spring and Autumn Annals".
"The five classics have a lot of words, and it's getting late outside. Why not just ask for three chapters of the Five Classics at will?"
"What do you think of Mr. Huaiyuan?" Zhou Zhiqing looked at Dou Changsheng with coldness when Song Yu finished speaking, and obviously disliked the Dou family. He sneered and suggested saying.
"Mr. Zhou said it right. It's getting late. The Five Classics words are too many." Wang Zhiqiang trembled with the fat on his face, and his eyes narrowed as if he was preaching like lines.
"Yes, it's getting late, so it's better to end early."
Some people started, and naturally they agreed, and Takizawa's family said it was good.
"The Four Books and Five Classics are the words of the saints, so you might as well listen more," Dou Fangde intervened and preached, looking at everyone, with a serious look in his eyes, which made the public angry.
My son is excellent and has excellent worries. These bad dogs started to yell unwillingly.
No one raises the topic, so naturally it will not be a big deal. Some people dare to make things difficult for them, and they also began to agree. As losers, of course, I hope everyone will fail together.
It is difficult to recite the Five Sutras, but if you recite them along, you may not be able to recite them.
But if you ask a random question, it involves not only memorization, but also reaction ability. I don’t know how many people can recite it, but they can’t react.
I was very annoyed. Zhou Zhiqing and Wang Zhiqiang deliberately made things difficult for this time. There were too many people who agreed. Song Yu would definitely agree and would not refute it.
"There are too many three articles each, two each." Song Yu pondered for a moment, shook his head slowly and said.
"Mr. Huaiyuan said it well, just two articles each." Wang Zhiqiang looked at Song Yu with his squinted eyes and slowly moved away from his vision. Song Yu's reaction was slightly wrong. This recitation was Dou Changsheng's strength, and there was another article in front of him, which was deliberately taken care of.
It seems that they have to take care of the opinions of the Dou family, Feng family and others, but Wang Zhiqiang doesn't care. After all, they are a large and powerful party.
There are not many two articles each. It is difficult to recite one passage accurately in it. You must know that the Five Classics are not as well-known as the Four Books, and the Zhou Yi is obscure and difficult to understand. Most people rarely read it. How could such a young boy study it? He would not have the energy.
A sharp light appeared in the narrowed eyes. Since Qingchen had no hope, no one should succeed. Just send Song Yu away honestly.
"The Book of Songs: eleven chapters of Zhou Nan?"
"Guan Ju, Ge Tan, Rou Er, Fu Wood, Yau, Taoyao, Rabbit, Fen, Han Guang, Ru Tomb, Lin's Toe!"
"Lin's Toe?"
"Lin's toe, Master Zhenxing, alas for Lin!"
"Yapa!"
“…”
Looking at Dou Changsheng, who had no hesitation at all, Wang Zhiqiang was not anxious, nor at all, and took out his white handkerchief and wiped it gently. This was the sweat from the hot summer.
I repeatedly wiped my sweat, and the handkerchief was soaked in a short while.
His eyes were still calm and steady. The Book of Songs and the Book of Documents are all too famous. Dou Changsheng answered the questions that may be given in the imperial examinations.
The real difficulty is Zhou Yi. As long as you can’t answer one, even if you fail, no matter how successful it is.
The Five Classics "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes", and "Spring and Autumn Annals" were soon completed, and the atmosphere became solemn. Dou Changsheng's answers never hesitated. The question fell and the answers had already sounded.
This undoubtedly shows that Dou Changsheng's ability is real and knowledgeable. It is difficult to recite it, but it is even more difficult to be able to answer at will. It is even more difficult to answer without thinking.
People with abilities are undoubtedly worthy of respect.
Song Yu also developed a strong interest, and the speed of question-and-answer was getting faster and faster. In a blink of an eye, it was the last "Book of Changes". At this point, Song Yu did not ask immediately, but promised to say, "The "Book of Changes" is profound and there are not many researchers."
"It's over here, I've allowed you to take the lead."
"Thanks to Mr. Huaiyuan for his care. The Five Classics are only missing from the "Book of Changes". If students want to be perfect, the top students should deserve it and no doubts are allowed."
His words were firm and fully demonstrated Dou Changsheng's self-confident spirit.
"Good ambition!"
"Li Gua?"
"Lizhen, prosperity; livestock and cows are auspicious."
"Previous nine?"
"Wang Yong went to the battle, and he had good fortune and had no fault of his head.
"Qian Gua?"
"Yun Henry Jung."
"Ninth day of the first lunar month?"
"Don't use the hidden dragon."
"Okay, okay, okay!" Song Yu repeatedly stroked his hands and praised, smiling and admiringly: "I'll give you four words."
"Dragon horse, phoenix chick!"
"If the imperial examination is in the future, you can come to our mansion when you arrive in Longhua."
"Thank you Mr. Huaiyuan!" Dou Changsheng bowed solemnly.
It was getting hotter this day.
Wang Zhiqiang looked at Zhou Zhiqing's flushed face and sighed slightly in his heart. Sweat as big as a grain of rice slowly flowed down the bridge of his nose and finally dripped onto his clothes.
Wang Zhiqiang murmured two words in a low voice: "Dou Family!"
A sense of crisis emerged in my heart. If I don’t die of a snake, I will be backfired. Since I have already broken up with the Dou family, I can only continue to fight against this path except to admit defeat and apologize.
Fortunately, Song Yu had not accepted Dou Changsheng as his disciple at this moment, otherwise he would have to admit defeat and now he still has room for operation.
